The state of martial arts in America is not what it should be. In Japan to even open a school you must be a Master Instructor (Fifth Degree Black Belt). In Oklahoma you would be hard pressed to find a school with a single Master Instructor in any city. To even rank to Black Belt you must be a Second Degree Black, and many schools don't even have that minimum qualification. How sad.

Ask yourself this question. Do you want to be taught by some guy at a strip mall with who knows what or where his training came from. To be taught by a non Black Belt, or do you want a direct line of training to the ultimate Martial Artist Bruce Lee. At Hargrave Martial Arts you get the Bruce Lee training and a official worldwide recognized certificate. You don't have to settle for less.
